Review of Coupling

Coupling (2003)
1/10
What a disaster!
13 November 2003
I have seen this series ... once. And that's all I needed. It is such a poor remake of the proper "Britcom" Coupling in the UK. The actors seem fake, just reading their lines from a tele-prompter. The sets are right off of a Hollywood sound stage. And the whole idea to take the script word for word from the UK version, and change some words so that it would make sense here in the USA, was the final blow. I am happy to see it off the air, and I hope that the NBC person, or persons were sacked right after. Let's hope they learned their lesson. If you want to see it properly done, buy Coupling on DVD which has series 1 and 2 out now, and series 3 should be out soon. And not to worry, they are in the process of filming series 4!
